Hi Paul.

I likd the idea of the Initial state.

Great job!

Is this in VB?

Hello Ioannis,

Thank you very much! It is written in Delphi, an IDE for Visual Pascal. I'm using version 4, which is kind of old, but the IDE loads so much more quickly than the later releases. I know about a half dozen or so (programming) languages, several of those are different flavors of C/C++. I can stumble through a couple of others (C# and Java). I tell customers that I'll write in any language they pay me to. If it isn't specified and it's for Windows, I generally choose Delphi.

I better get off my soapbox before I blather on any further...8-)

Best Regards,
Paul

Thanks for the great info and the links! I think I'd prefer to keep the idea of using those files as plan B, as it takes away the simplicity by requiring files to be present that are not required by PBP.

An alternate Plan B would be to develop my/our own set of files with just the data the application needed. A lot of work on the front side but there could be benefits as well.

But if they are freely available, they could be distrubted with the program. Are the installed with mplab? if so it seems no different then requiring MPASM

This goes back to the original database idea of Dave. Use a form to input information for each device as needed. If the db is community supported, it will be far easier to build the records.

Hmm, until Mama Microchip thinks there are rights on this and prohibits the free use of the files...

OK, may be I am pessimistic about it but if it involves community use of their original files, i'd be carefull...

Now it came to me, what is Lester doing on the matter of domain name?
